Dionysos, Orpheus and Argead Macedonia. Overwiev and Perspectives
The cult of Dionysos in ancient Macedonia and its possible relation to the Orphic beliefs is one of the most interesting aspects of the Macedonian culture, one, however, accessible to us only via very fragmentary and indirect evidence, partly textual, partly archaeological. The paper summarizes the most important aspects according to the status quaestionis and proposes some interpretations of the problem.
